Piggy Schrier




Emme had her 4 week midwife appt.
Back into the fish scale where she weighed in at 7lbs 7 oz...yikes! The kid is on the charts!

Mia and Scarlett




These friends get into a little bit of trouble but have lots of fun!

Love Rainbows




Thanks to Carrie and Noah for feeding our love of rainbows...

My Birth is Official! (per the county)





Okay, so who knew that when you give birth at home its a real pain in the rear to get a birth certificate. After getting the required 87 pieces of documentation together and being given an appointment (took 2 weeks) we now officially are registered with the county of Los Angeles. Note the place of birth...

Playtime with Dad






Here are Emme and Mia enjoying some time with dad. Note Daniel's ab work

Visiting Grandma at Work




We made a little mid-week visit to the westside to visit gamma and eat lunch. Here I am working in her office!

Chillin in the Boppy



We are getting a little more awake these days...Emme in the boppy.

Putting together the Crib



Somehow when Daniel and Uncle Mike were putting together the crib, Nacho ended up inside. They claim he did it to himself...we are not so sure.

Reading to my Sister



Mia has many talents as you all know. Sharing her love of reading is one we don't particularly mind her passing along to Emme. Here they are doing a pre-dinner lesson.

Okay, more sleeping



So in the previous post I am awake with eyes open but most of the time I am still crashed out. Here are two shots of me, one being hled and one in the car seat. Note my size in the car seat. I know you are aware that 6lbs isn't that much but this shows you my size...

I'm Awake!



There is something about the Schrier girls and crazy face. Here we have captured Emme getting her crazy face one. There has been little to none of her with eyes open so its a peak at the baby blues. Yes, blue. We are convinced that Mia never had blue eyes. Maybe they were grey at the beginning but VERY early on (I think 6 weeks) that girl had brown eyes. This one...maybe she got hit with the recessive gene...

Klub Kids gymnastics





So Mia is thoroughly enjoying her time in gymnastics class. Here is her doing her moves. Note that the last pic is her finishing up a somersault, not falling down!

Baby Sling





So Emme gets to hang in a sling. Why shouldn't baby Judy? Here is Mia modeling her new sling. Etsy people, $11. Well worth it!

Three Girls in the Morning




So Daniel has come to terms with the fact that he is way outnumbered. Mia is clear that there are 3 (sometimes 10 per her count) girls in the house and just one boy (Nacho seems to be sexless most of the time and fair enough, his manhood was stripped of him long ago). Here is a little snapshot from this morning!

Lea and Emme





So our sister Carolina came (with lunch - hallelujah) and Lea to visit. Lea is 6 weeks older than Emme and like all our friends, clearly has a size advantage. There are a number of pics because its just not that easy to get 2 babies to cooperate. Lea was less happy about it than Emme in these shots but that is just dumb luck.

Spiderman


Emme is a bit like spiderman, a bit like a koala, a bit of a tree frog?

Our friend Sadie


So not the easiest picture to see but Sadie is going to be Emme's best friend, no matter who says what :). Sadie's mom Dorian is a great new friend and the girls, who are about 10 weeks apart in age, will be in daycare together starting in late August. Dori picked us up to go to a BF group. Good times!

Happy Birthday Cake



Grandama brought chocolate cake which did not make the earlier pictures. Mia only ate the M&Ms.
